SUNDAY AT THE SPA

A DARK INVADER

Who is this behind my blinds?

He knows he's taking a chance because he's not normally allowed up there.

He's peeking out at me but also seems to be saying "I'm hiding.  You can't see me."

And then a short time later . . .

"Are you kidding?  I've been curled up asleep in your chair the whole time."

FRIDAY FUNNIES

Before we get to the humor(?) let me remind you that today is Veterans Day.

Say thank you to a vet today.

Now let me try to lift the miasma of gloom and despair prevailing, Gentle Readers, and give you a ray of sunshine.

Here's one more for you dog-lovers.

In spite of that, I'm still going to call for the kitty at the end of this.

But in the meantime, the old humor bank is running low so, Gentle Readers, if you have any good ones out there send 'em to me.

I appreciate it.

Now, this is an order: as has occurred in our house, turn off the t.v., stop reading the newspapers, get outside maybe and kick some leaves around and try to have yourselves a good weekend.

And always remember that laughter is the best medicine.

Now then.

Here, kitty-kitty . . .

THROWBACK THURSDAY

Does anyone remember what these are?

That's just a small part of my collection gathering dust.

Here's what is inside one of those plastic cases.

If you're old enough to remember cassette tapes, then this is familiar to you.

They came after LP's, which came after 45's, and before CD's.

You remember CD's, don't you?

Here's a sample of what you could have heard on that tape above.

And curiously, it's rather apt for Throwback Thursday.

TUESDAY TRAVELS

THE EVE AND GOOD EATING

One more day of bomfoggery, flibberty-gibberty and gibble-glabbing.

Then we vote.

In the meantime, there is the inner man (and woman) to satisfy.

And satisfy she (SWMBO) did last night with this beautiful dish of onions and peppers and baby squash.

Seasoned and headed for the oven.

They accompanied this dish of slow-cooked spicy pork chops draped with barbecue sauce.

Gentle Readers, you shoulda been here.

That was some good eatin'.
